6 Tasty Wine Cocktails to
Make in 2020

For many years, wine cocktails
received a bad rap because of wine
coolers. Thankfully, they are making a
comeback, and for great reasons.
As pretty as they are light and
refreshing, they make for a good drink
whether you are throwing a party for
two or 32. You can craft spritzes and
sangrias in batches. Both are very
festive and can entertain a huge crowd
without anyone going thirsty.
There are wine cocktail recipes for
every occasion and season. Here are
some of the best wine mixed drink
recipes that you’ll love to use
repeatedly.
Ginger-Lime Spritz .
Muddle ginger in a cocktail shaker.
Add lime juice. Add ice and shake
vigorously for about 30 seconds or
until the outside of the shaker becomes
frosty.
Strain into ice-filled wine glasses. Add
a dry Prosecco for maximum
refreshment or other sparkling white
wine and top off with club soda. Stir
together, and then garnish with mint.
Blueberry-Apple Cordials.
When you can buy many quarts of
berries, try to preserve them into a
drinkable form.
Mix blueberries, lemon zest, and
brandy in a jar and seal tightly. Let the
mixture sit in a cool dark place, shaking
it daily, until it becomes deep purple in
color, usually within a month.
Strain the mixture using a cheesecloth
into a large bowl. Do not press on solids
to prevent the mixture from becoming
cloudy. Add simple syrup to taste.
Chill until cold and start serving
cordial in small glasses. The strained
cordial mixture can be prepared 6
months ahead. Just keep them chilled
and covered.
To make a spritzer, add 1 ounce of
cordial in a flute and top off with
sparkling wine.
Melon and Lemon Verbena with
Prosecco .
If you want something sweet, why not
try melon and lemon verbena with
Prosecco. It is very easy to make!
Add sugar, lemon verbena, and water
in a small saucepan. Let it simmer over
medium-low heat, stirring
continuously to dissolve sugar
granules. Let it cool before straining the
syrup into a pitcher.
Get cantaloupe and remove the seeds.
Scoop the flesh into a blender and
make a smooth puree.
Stir into the syrup and chill the mixture
for about 1-2 hours to make sure the
foam has settled, then serve.
For leftovers, gently top off with
Prosecco.
This melon mixture can be made a day
ahead. Just keep it chilled.
Blood Orange Sangria.
Another delicious ingredient to add
when preparing wine mixed drinks is
calamansi juice, a rare but delicious
citrus fruit.
Muddle lemongrass and lemon juice in
a pitcher. Stir in Riesling, blood orange,
grapefruit, calamansi juice, and lime
juices. Let it chill for at least 30
minutes.
Strain the mixture into a clean pitcher.
Pour in ice-filled wine glasses and add
¼ cup of Champagne. Garnish with
blood orange wheels for a perfect
presentation.
Mango Passion.
Fresh mangoes are the star of a white
wine cocktail that is inspired by the
beaches of Thailand.
The mixture of vodka and sparkling
white wine gives a fascinating base
while the tropical fruit plays off the
rich taste of maple syrup.
Cut the mangoes slightly off-center to
avoid the pit. Scoop out all the flesh and
add them into a blender.
Add vodka, lime juice, salt, and syrup.
Blend well to create a puree. Do a taste
test. You may add more syrup if
necessary.
Pour the concoction into ice-filled
glasses.
Top it off with your favorite white
wine, champagne, or sparkling water if
you prefer less alcohol.
You can also garnish the glasses with
slices of fresh lime and some fresh
fruits like cherries.
Francophile.
Do you like preparing red wine
cocktails, especially during fall? Maybe
it is about time you add Calvados to the
equation.
That French apple brandy will give
your mixture of wine, cinnamon syrup,
and lemon juice a richness that should
warm you to the bone! This is very easy
to make!
Prepare the cinnamon syrup first. Add
cinnamon sticks, sugar, and water in a
small saucepan.
Bring it to boil over high heat, then
simmer using low-flame for a few
minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and
let it stand for at least 6 hours. Strain
and then store the mixture in the
refrigerator.
Add calvados, Rioja wine, cinnamon
syrup, lemon juice, and water in a
small saucepan.
Cover and heat over medium flame
until hot. Pour into a thick-walled mug
and garnish with a cinnamon stick or
an apple slice.
